Met Katherine yesterday and I remember cheering for them both. What a very humbling experience it was to meet a woman who reluctantly agreed to go to try rowing through a friend. True British grit.
in the second event lane five bou seat. kirsten hemstrong. She's one of the coaches on my team!!! We are from Oakland, CA unitend states. I am so honored ot have her as a coach she super cool
one of the funniest and best celebrations of a gold medal i have ever seen, there`s a lot to be learned from this clip vis a vis winning is always a bonus.
+suman das heavyweight means the athlete themselves are above 75kg ( not sure how accurate that is) amd as gor for distance it is 2000 metres this is for both heavy weight and light weight
Why have these videos been uploaded with a different commentator to originally on TV? The BBC guys not only have more knowledge about rowing but transfer way more passion to the event.
All the videos on the official Olympic channel are from OBS, who provide commentary to those broadcasters who don't have their own teams and who have chosen not to hook up with another broadcaster's feed - can you imagine a broadcaster from a small nation of about 1 or 2 million people sending 50 commentators of their own to the games? Some countries do deals with the larger broadcasters like the BBC, NBC etc, to use their commentary on audio, but most just take the OBS feed. Unfortunately, sometimes the OBS commentators are somewhat lacking in knowledge, as with here just talking about the relative positions of the boats and giving nothing regarding stroke rates, synchronicity, cleanliness of catch etc. It's heard on many of the OBS videos - even the normally affable Barry Davies sounded like he was yawning all the time during the Opening Ceremony (listen to that one and you'll know what I mean).

This was my favourite moment of the Olympics :-)
"I'm gonna be on a stamp!"
Made the Olympics for me that moment.
I love the interview they gave to John Inverdale afterwards, they were both stunned!!! Sophie Hosking and Kat Copeland - Olympic heroes!!!

I've never cried so much watching sport than I did watching Olympic Rowing!
B Final Canada.... That was an insane final sprint.
I love Kat Copeland's reaction @ 28:30 Gobsmacked I thnk describes it best.
すばらしい‼
@ 26:42 "kick it!"

Jetsumo70 Yeah
Jetsumo70 what is the distance , heavyweight means the player bodyweight is heavy or the boat is heavy.
+suman das heavyweight means the athlete themselves are above 75kg ( not sure how accurate that is) amd as gor for distance it is 2000 metres this is for both heavy weight and light weight
+dylon vanderventel lightweight means the athletes are below 59kg and have a boat average of 57kg for the atheles (for women)
HW means above 59kg. I should know, I have a long way to go to be a LW.
Great stuff.
